Washington Focuses on Oil Over Nuclear
The article discusses the escalation of tensions between the United States and Iran, focusing on the current priorities of the Trump administration regarding Iran. The U.S. Vice President clarified that the main goal at present is to lower oil prices by maintaining the flow of energy supplies through the Strait of Hormuz, rather than focusing on preventing Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons, which has become less important in current policies. These statements suggest that oil prices may remain high, with the price per barrel occasionally exceeding $110, although they are currently falling within the range of $80 to $86. On the other hand, Washington has threatened to impose unprecedented economic sanctions on Iran, including the blockade of its ports, in an attempt to economically isolate it, while Iran has resumed restrictions on navigation through the strait and carries out limited naval attacks. The article explains that the U.S. administration is following a strategy of balancing economic and military pressure, hinting that a political solution is often considered the preferable option from Washington’s perspective, although military escalation remains a possibility.
